    Let's stay together

    We said we'd stay together and let nothing break us apart
    Now talks of splitting up, its rocky, where did it start
    Did you not pay attention to the things I would mention
    Or have I now fallen under some kind of suspicion
    Did we turn out the lights and leave one another in the dark
    Or become too busy and forgot to take time to talk
    Maybe we just got caught up in this twisted game of life
    Or was I too selfish to simply be your wife
    Could I have been more caring or you more sharing
    God was our matchmaker He did the pairing
    They say he makes no mistakes but could he have been wrong
    Cause now theres weakness in the bond that was so strong
    When we were apart I yearned for you to be here
    And now the very thought of separating leaves me in fear
    I despised your ways because i didnt understand
    Its hard on me but I cannot fathom the plight of a man
    It wasnt our plan to fail but instead we failed to plan
    We fell when we should've done all we could to stand
    I knew to expect storms but damn the weather
    To hell with what they say and let's stay together

    could feel the empty feeling one gets when despite how hard you try to hold on to it, love is slipping through your fingers. and the tighter you hold on the fast it seems to slip. good one.

    Good job! You filled this poem with true emotion! I could feel it from the first line to the last line! Thanks for sharing!

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
